I have finally finished knitting my Spring Garden Tee. It turned out really nice and has a very soft drape. This would have been my first time knitting a top. I am glad i picked up this project as it was very easy to follow. Here are so many ways you can wear this tee. My daughter and I had an enjoyable time during our backyard pictorial 🙂

My hubby is a simple man with very simple needs. Our eldest and I got up early to make him his favorite apple pie. Yes, he can surely eat apple pie for breakfast 🙂 The kids made homemade cards and each of them gave their dad coupons for him to redeem anytime. Our oldest daughter gave a Free tennis match, middle son gave a Free hour of yardwork and youngest daughter gave Free head rub. I love my guy! So lucky to have him in my life ❤

How i would love to get a knitting bowl or yarn bowl as others call it. It’s a decorative piece you can have lying around the house with your knitting project and ball of yarn in it. Knitting yarn bowls look like this. However, I improvised in using an old orchid pot that has been neglected on the side for a long time. No plant nor knick knacks claimed it. Hence, my new knitting bowl. 🙂

My new (old) knitting bowl 🙂

My Magrathea is kept on the side, hibernating for couple of weeks. Started my Spring Garden Tee by Alana Dakos. I originally used Tweedy Pima but frogged it as the needle i used for gauge went all the way down to US 2 from a 6. The knit became stiff so i completely changed yarn to silk bamboo. Ohh..the drape is beautiful and the yarn sooo soft. I hope i can finish this soon as the weather has become super nice. Sunny days and 3 more days of school! How great is that?!
